Brownstone smells

Our family lives in a garden and parlor level duplex. I am pregnant and much more sensitive to smells than before. I’ve started noticing musty/moldy/mildew-y smells on the garden level. I experience so strongly that it sends me running to the bathroom and now I can’t sleep in our bedroom. Of course, my husband doesn’t notice anything and thinks I’m insane. Has anyone else experienced this and have any suggestions for addressing the problem? It’s going to drive me to my wit’s end that I can’t track down what’s causing the smell. It’s seems to be coming from inside the walls (and it’s not a dead rodent). Help!
